A mutual crush that was never revealed gets a second chance when two people are reunited after seven years to draw a perfect conclusion to the regrets from their youth.
When they were in high school, Lu Jia had a crush on Xu Jiaxiu who excelled in academics and had good character. However, they went their separate ways after graduation and lost contact. After working for many years, Lu Jia finally returns to her hometown of Dongzhou. She joins a company only to realize that the founder is none other than Xu Jiaxiu and that they have become neighbors.
Lu Jia thought that things would be different now that she has moved on but their daily interactions stirs up feelings of romance once again. Ye Angyang who has had a crush on Lu Jia since high school also joins the same company and he starts to pursue her. The reappearance of Xu Jiaxiu’s ‘first love’ also causes for the couple. What’s more, a former suitor who was once rejected by Lu Jia approaches her using work as an excuse.

The Chinese title is literally translated as The Us in Shi Guang. “Shi Guang” is actually the name of an app where they document their love story..
For a coming of age book, this is rather light yet poignant. Some parts are pretty touching & funny. They decided to go to the hotel to XXOO for their 1st time but she felt asleep lol.
She has a crush on him in high school but only managed to get together 10 yrs later. This is fairly typical in a lot of youth novels, 2nd chance. Anyway, nobody can beat Proud, Zhou Zhou & Xi Xi, my forever favorite :) Sorry, I still prefer Zhou Zhou over boss Xu even though I always have a soft spot for the Boss.
Also, the side characters are not as interesting as Proud. I also don't like the part that her ex-married boss (but divorced later) likes her. It feels kind of force.
All in all, I still like Sui Hou Zhu's writing style, even though I feel that she is rather draggy like her pal Ding Mo.
